I'm not sure I see that in your link. Slide 7 states:
● New officer authorities include:
- Authority to question and seek identification from travelers wishing to withdraw from the preclearance area
To me this sounds like enhanced authority to question (and possibly temporarily detain, how else would they be able to further question?) travellers who wish to leave the pre-clearance area. In addition to being able to compel travellers to provide further identification. And everything else I've read sounds to me like the CBP are receiving more powers in the pre-clearance area than they've had in the past.
